1 Pilot Study: Elevated Circulating Levels of the Proinflammatory Cytokine Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor in Patients With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury  Adam Stein, MD, Arti Panjwani, DO, Cristina Sison, PhD, Lisa Rosen, ScM, Radhika Chugh, MD, Christine Metz, PhD, Matthew Bank, MD, Ona Bloom, PhD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 94, Issue 8, Pages (August 2013) DOI: /j.apmr Copyright © 2013 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 MIF levels in plasma of patients with chronic SCI and uninjured control subjects. For each group, thick bar indicates median levels and thin bars indicate IQR. P value indicates Mann-Whitney.

3 Fig 2 Circulating levels of MIG/CXCL9, MCSF, and IL-3 in patients with chronic SCI and uninjured control subjects. (A) MIG/CXCL9, P<.03. (B) MCSF, P<.03. (C) IL-3, P<.04. For each group, thick bar indicates median levels and thin bars indicate IQR. P values indicates Mann-Whitney.

4 Fig 3 (A) SCGF-β levels in plasma of patients with chronic SCI and uninjured control subjects. Bar indicates median levels in each group. For each group, thick bar indicates median levels and thin bars indicate IQR. (B) Each point represents SCGF-β data from a subject with chronic SCI (Y-axis) plotted according to the years from initial injury for that subject (X-axis). Spearman rho (ρ) correlation coefficient =.469.
